Media#

Last updated: 2024-12-31

Since around 2020, I have been keeping track of almost all media I consume - mostly books and games, but also concerts (but not CD’s), movies, museums, and other forms of culture. Here, you can find a quick summary of what I’ve been up to

Favorites#

A good story, to me, is defined as something that keeps you thinking about long after you finished reading/watching/playing it. Hence, even if I didn’t really enjoy something at the moment itself, it may turn out to be a favorite later. Here are my some of my favorite pieces of media for each of the years I have been keeping track:
